The homeward journey for Legolas, from Gondor to Greenwood and beyond. Some insight into what the War of the Ring must have meant to the quietest and oft neglected member of the Fellowship, together with his and Gimli's subsequent efforts to achieve acceptance in opposing worlds.

The Fellowship reaches Caras Galadhon, where Gimli speaks rudely to Haldir, the march warden. That triggers in Aragorn some memories long forgotten about the first time he passed through Moria... and also the time that he met an unusual friend.

sequel of sorts to "A Charge To Keep" and "Coming Home," and it is also something of a bridge between that and stories set later on in the Fourth Age. I had a set of characters who made a significant transition in their lives, and this story is an attempt to show how they came to make this transition.

It is set over the autumn and winter from 3019 to 3020. This is a period of recovery for Middle-earth. Sauron has been defeated, and the King has returned to Gondor, but the Third Age has not yet ended. Lingering effects of the Shadow and the War still remain.

What would have happened if Gandalf hadn't fallen in Moria? Would the outcome have been better, or worse? Here's a darker-than-the-original but not-as-dark-as-some AU version of how things might have turned out differently...and the same...if Sam had remembered to bring a bit of rope. 2010 MEFA winner, 2nd place, AU Longer works, Incomplete.

The Sons of Elrond return to Rivendell to prepare for their father's departure. Their continuing story, told from the perspective of a child rescued from Minas Tirith 2 years after the War of the Rings. Sequel to Light Fingers. Read that first! COMPLETE!

Though Aragorn left Gondor in the triumph of the Corsair defeat saying he planned to spend his time working against the enemy, he arrived at Lothlorien less than three months later 'on his way to Rivendell' and 'weary'. Would such a short time in the Wild 'weary' the intrepid Ranger, or did something much more drastic occur during the 'perils on the dark confines of Mordor"?

followup to Fell Memories for her birthday "drabble" - she gets a series of 12 to mirror the other story.

The story so far: Aragorn, on his way out of Gondor after the Corsair raid, was captured by Nazgul and casually tortured as he was being brought to Dol Guldur. He did not reveal who he was, even though hard pressed. He escaped in a way that, I hope, was reasonable and not superhuman. He swam Anduin to get away and ended up on the borders of Lorien asking for help.
